Quick Start

pip install funasr

from funasr import AutoModel

model = AutoModel(model="iic/SenseVoiceSmall", vad_model="fsmn-vad", spk_model="cam++", device="cuda")
result = model.generate(input="meeting.wav")

Output — structured text with speaker labels, timestamps, and punctuation:

[00:00.4 → 00:03.8] Speaker 0: Let's discuss the Q3 plan.
[00:04.2 → 00:07.1] Speaker 1: Sounds good. I have three points.
[00:07.5 → 00:12.3] Speaker 0: Go ahead. We have 30 minutes.

That's it. One model, one call — VAD segmentation, speech recognition, punctuation, speaker diarization all happen automatically.

Deploy as API server: funasr-server --device cuda → OpenAI-compatible endpoint at localhost:8000

Use with AI agents: MCP Server for Claude/Cursor · OpenAI API for LangChain/Dify/AutoGen

Why FunASR?

	FunASR	Whisper	Cloud APIs
Speed	170x realtime	13x realtime	~1x realtime
Speaker ID	✅ Built-in	❌ Needs pyannote	✅ Extra cost
Emotion	✅ Happy/Sad/Angry	❌	❌
Languages	50+	57	Varies
Streaming	✅ WebSocket	❌	✅
Self-hosted	✅ MIT license	✅ MIT license	❌ Cloud only
Cost	Free	Free	$0.006/min+
CPU viable	✅ 17x realtime	❌ Too slow	N/A

Benchmark

184 long-form audio files (192 min). Full report →

Model	GPU Speed	CPU Speed	vs Whisper-large-v3
SenseVoice-Small	170x realtime	17x realtime	🚀 13x faster
Paraformer-Large	120x realtime	15x realtime	🚀 9x faster
Whisper-large-v3-turbo	46x realtime	❌	3.4x faster
Fun-ASR-Nano	17x realtime	3.6x realtime	1.3x faster
Whisper-large-v3	13x realtime	❌	baseline

Key takeaway: FunASR models run on CPU faster than Whisper runs on GPU.

from funasr import AutoModel

# Chinese production (VAD + ASR + punctuation + speaker)
model = AutoModel(model="paraformer-zh", vad_model="fsmn-vad", punc_model="ct-punc", spk_model="cam++", device="cuda")
result = model.generate(input="meeting.wav", hotword="关键词 20")

# 31 languages with timestamps
model = AutoModel(model="FunAudioLLM/Fun-ASR-Nano-2512", hub="hf", trust_remote_code=True,
                  vad_model="fsmn-vad", vad_kwargs={"max_single_segment_time": 30000}, device="cuda")
result = model.generate(input="audio.wav", batch_size=1)

# Streaming real-time
model = AutoModel(model="paraformer-zh-streaming", device="cuda")
result = model.generate(input="chunk.wav", cache={}, chunk_size=[0, 10, 5])

# Emotion recognition
model = AutoModel(model="emotion2vec_plus_large", device="cuda")
result = model.generate(input="audio.wav", granularity="utterance")
